Summary:
Coventry, Vermont is home to a single elementary school, the Coventry Village School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 123 students. The school is part of the Coventry School District, which is ranked 53 out of 75 districts in Vermont and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Coventry Village School faces significant academic challenges, with test scores that are consistently below the state average across grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 6th grade English Language Arts, only 35.29% of students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 57.38%. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 26.7%, which is much higher than the state average. Additionally, a high percentage of Coventry Village School students, 67.48%, are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite these challenges, Coventry Village School does have some strengths, including a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8:1, which is better than the state average and suggests smaller class sizes. However, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Vermont elementary schools over the past few years, with rankings between 115-119 out of 133 schools. Addressing the root causes of the academic and attendance issues, and providing targeted interventions, may be necessary to improve outcomes for the students at Coventry Village School.
